Answers:
linspace() is a tool in Python for creating numeric sequences. linspace function creates
sequences of evenly spaced values within a defined interval. You can then plot those values
on canvas using .plot() function.
In python linspace() is used to create sequences of evenly spaced values within a defined interval. we need to specify a starting point and ending point of interval and then total no.of points you want in that interval.e.g. linspace(start=0,stop=5,num=10)-This will generate a numpy array of ten points as 0,0.5,1.0,1.5...and so on.
When we want to generate a plot , we require some input to be provided . suppose you want to generate a plot for sin() function , we can provide the output of linspace as input for the sin() function.
p1=numpy.linspace(0,2,10)
plot(p1.sin(p1)
This will generate a sin() plot.
